cookinglight.com has several carrot cake recipes. I've made many of them ( I LOVE carrot cake!) and haven't found one I didn't like.

I really should not have opened this thread when I'm hitting a mid-afternoon slump. Somehow my pre-planned yogurt may not cut it....

If you really want simple - Duncan Hines has a carrot cake mix that is 200 calories per serving. It would be lower than that by replacing the oil with applesauce and the eggs with egg substitute.

For the Cream Cheese Frosting:
8 oz 1/3 fat Philadelphia Cream Cheese
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract

Disclaimer - I have the mix but haven't made it yet.

As far as I know, the only real way to retrieve a bumped topic is to go to the "My Topics" section of the Message Board. And there you can see the topics you've replied to. I wish there was a save button or something similar but this is the only way I know of.

You can still *lose* weight while enjoying good, yummy food. Just don't eat the entire cake.

Personally I can't give up everything or I will end up binging like crazy. So if you allow for it in calories, then why not have it every now and then?

Ive made this so many times and it comes out PERFECT! you could always play around with it and swap the muscavo sugar for something like stevia...do the icing with blitzed banana and lemon juice with stevia or some other alternative, because the other ingrediants are that bad..

Oh and so everyone knows I put in all of the ingredients for this and if you make it into 16 even slices it comes out to be 690 cals per slice. In case anyone wanted to know.

And the whoopee pies are 190 a piece!! I know what I am making for my daughter's birthday next month!!!!

If you juice with carrots, use the pulp from them.
